Ravens Week 1 Snap Shuffle: WR Injuries Prompt Depth Replacements

Baltimore topped Indianapolis 41-23 in Week 1 as wide-receiver injuries forced depth-chart reshuffles: Zay Flowers left with a hamstring issue after 20 first-half snaps, Ja’Kobi Lane exited with a wrist injury after 27 snaps, and Devontez Walker was inactive, leaving Chris Moore and LaJohntay Wester to each handle 20 offensive snaps. Rashod Bateman started and played all but one snap but was targeted only once with no catches. Lamar Jackson played all 68 offensive snaps; Derrick Henry rushed 20 times for 144 yards and 3 touchdowns. On defense, Roquan Smith and Nate Wiggins logged 54 snaps each, with Tavius Robinson (44) and Trey Hendrickson (40) leading the edge and the safeties (Hamilton and Starks) playing most downs. Nnami Madubuike’s return remains on the horizon as the Ravens leaned into multiple secondary looks and a nickel-heavy scheme.
